A second problem I have is that I want to set the background color of a
row
in a grid if that row has a certain value in a cell. If the cell is not
empty
then I want the row to grey. I would like for this to happen as the grid
is
loaded. I am not sure where to put the code to do this.

Here is the code I want to use:

IF LEN(ALLTRIM(ThisForm._GRID1.Column4.Text1.Value)) > 0 then
ThisForm._GRID1.Column4.BackColor = RGB(255,255,128)
endif

This actually only greys out 1 cell but I have tried to put this code in
several places and all I can get done is to grey out the entire column -
even
when I don't want certain cells greyed out.

TIA

Frank
